Abstract: The world is moving closer to the point when fossil fuels may someday run out due to the ongoing increase in their consumption. Industries and research communities are turning more and more toward alternative powered by renewable energy to allay this worry. The design and performance evaluation of an electric two-wheeler with a brushless DC (BLDC) motor and a lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery as the main propulsion and energy storage system are discussed in this work. The study focuses on an equation-based approach to battery electric vehicle development that includes driveline evaluation, motor simulation, battery modeling, tractive force estimation, as well as evaluation of energy system losses. The suggested structure allows for effective selection of motor ratings and battery capacity based on the vehicle's performance needs. Because the motor's size and efficiency are directly related to its rating, careful consideration of load and traction characteristics is required. The results of this study give useful guidance for constructing optimal electric two-wheelers that fulfill specific operating requirements.
